Malibu Tanning sends paleness packing with airbrushing and five levels of tanning beds to achieve a sun-kissed glow sans the actual sun. First-time tanners and those looking for a relaxing experience can recline in the level-one Sunstar bed ($5/session), which features 100-watt bulbs to build a base tan and a base camp for a future influx of pigmentation. The level-two Solaris bed ($10/session), level-three SolarForce bed ($15/session), and level-four Sunscape bed ($20/session) incrementally step up dermal darkening within reasonable spans of tanning temporality, leaving customers with plenty of time to return to archiving vintage TV Guides. The futuristically fabricated level-five Velocity bed ($25/session) employs an open-air design to keep clients cool, while a radio with an MP3 jack plays custom tunes and 18 facial bulbs at 1,000 watts each provide long-lasting color for both fair- and dark-skinned clients. Tanners can also skip the UV rays altogether and achieve brilliant bronzing with an airbrush-tanning session ($35).

The human body is designed to produce vitamin D from ultraviolet exposure. However, the staff at Tiki Tan Express by Solarium know that going to the beach on a regular basis is not very practical. Instead, they welcome guests to soak up rays and vitamin D without the sand between their toes, allowing them to melt away their frustrations as they relax in a clean and comfortable environment. Equipped with quality beds powered anywhere from 3,200 to 22,000 watts, these machines provide a safe way for the skin to achieve a beautiful golden glow. Top-brand lotions are also available for clients to reach their personal tanning goals.

After a few decades on the fridge, some “works of art” just stop making an impression. The same can be said for tattoos on bodies, although their removal requires some expert help. The trained technicians at Elkhart Tattoo Removal have spent years learning how to remove unwanted ink with minimal pain and energy, investing in two new methods that can often remove all traces of a tattoo in as little as three sessions. The first method employs a hypersaline solution to incite a process of osmosis, drawing pigment out of the body. Alternatively, the magnetic-halogen system sends focused halogen light into the pigments, bringing them to the attention of the body’s immune system to be processed out via the lymph nodes. Both of these all-natural methods are gentler on the skin than traditional laser treatments, ensuring that the underlying skin will be presentable without retattooing it with an Ivy League diploma.
